The clock: Norfolk Island keeps UTC+11, having moved from UTC+11:30 in 2015, and has observed daylight saving since 2019.
Kingston lies at 168.0°E. Its time zone, UTC+11, is built around the 165°E meridian. The 3.0° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 12 minutes behind the sun: solar noon arrives at about 11:48 rather than 12:00. Under daylight saving the clocks move 60 minutes forward, widening the gap to 48 minutes and pushing solar noon to 12:48.
The longest day of 2026 is 22 December, with 14h of daylight. The shortest is 22 June, with 10h 17m. The swing between them is 3h 43m. At this latitude the seasons are visible in the clock, but never dramatic.
The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Kingston the sun comes up earliest on 3 October at 05:25, while the latest sunset waits until 11 January at 19:51. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.
The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Kingston that civil twilight runs about 24 minutes at the equinox.
